Examples
- Another trick i try d upon him , which he innocently came into also ; his name was ismael , who they call muly or moely , so i call d to him , moely said i , our patroon s guns are on board the boat , can you not get a little powder and shot , it may be we may kill some alcamies a fowl like our curlieus for our selves , for i know he keeps the gunners stores in the ship
接着我又想出了一个新花样，他居然天真地上了圈套。这个摩尔人的名字叫伊斯玛，但大家叫他马利或莫利，所以我也这样叫他。 "莫利， "我说， "我们主人的枪在船上，你去搞点火药和鸟枪弹来，也许我们还能给自己打几只水鸟呢！ - I was encouraged with this , and as i had my patroon s antient on board , i made a waft of it to them for a signal of distress , and fir d a gun , both which they saw , for they told me they saw the smoke , tho they did not hear the gun ; upon these signals they very kindly brought too , and lay by for me , and in about three hours time i came up with them
我船上本来就有我们原主人的旗帜，我就拿出旗帜向他们摇起来作为求救的信号，同时又鸣枪求救。这两个信号他们都看见了，因为，后来他们告诉我，枪声他们虽然没有听到，但看到了冒烟。他们看到了信号，就停船等我们。 - My first contrivance was to make a pretence to speak to this moor , to get something for our subsistance on board ; for i told him we must not presume to eat of our patroon s bread , he said that was true ; so he brought a large basket of rusk or bisket of their kind , and three jarrs with fresh water into the boat ; i knew where my patroon s case of bottles stood , which it was evident by the make were taken out of some english prize ; and i convey d them into the boat while the moor was on shoar , as if they had been there before , for our master : i convey d also a great lump of bees - wax into the boat , which weighed above half a hundred weight , with a parcel of twine or thread , a hatchet , a saw and a hammer , all which were of great use to us afterwards ; especially the wax to make candles
我知道主人装酒的箱子放的地方看那箱子的样子，显然也是从英国人手里夺来的战利品。我趁那摩尔人上岸去的时候，就把那箱酒搬上舢舨，放到一个适当的地方，好像主人原来就放在那儿似的。同时我又搬了六十多磅蜜蜡到船上来，还顺便拿了一小包粗线，一把斧头，一把锯子和一只锤子这些东西后来对我都非常有用，尤其是蜜蜡，可以用来做蜡烛。
